By "closest", I'm pretty sure they're still talking about light years.
Oh and nice thread necromancy.
linkDr. Robert S. Harrington, the chief astronomer of the U.S. Naval Observatory, died before he could publicize the fact that Planet X is approaching our Solar System.
Many feel his death part of a cove-up? One in which government agencies quickly moved to conceal the most earth-shaking discovery in history. If so, the search for truth begins in New Zealand.
In 1991, Dr. Robert S. Harrington, the chief astronomer of the U.S. Naval Observatory, took a puny 8-inch telescope to Black Birch, New Zealand, one of the few viewing points on Earth optimal for sighting Planet X, which he definitively calculated to be approaching from below the ecliptic at an angle of 40 degrees.

Dr Harrington says the most remarkable feature predicted for Planet X is that its orbit is tilted 30 degrees away from the ecliptic, the main plane of the solar system, where all previous searches have concentrated. His models also predict a greater distance from the Sun, about 10 billion miles, or between two or three times as distant as Pluto.
Not really, if there was a brown dwarf heading in this direction we would see it. Not with telescopes, with human eyeballs.
The idea was first proposed in 1995 by Nancy Lieder, founder of the website ZetaTalk. Lieder describes herself as a contactee with the ability to receive messages from extra-terrestrials from the Zeta Reticuli star system through an implant in her brain. She states that she was chosen to warn mankind that the object would sweep through the solar system in May 2003 (later revised to around 2010), causing a pole shift that would destroy most of humanity.
I highly doubt you can see something that is 3X further out than pluto with the human eye. As the light given off is only seen in the infra-red spectrum.

Planet X — Is It Really Out There?

Shrouded from the sun's light, mysteriously tugging at the orbits of Uranus and Neptune, is an unseen force that astronomers suspect may be PLanet X — a 10th resident of the Earth's celestial neighborhood.
Last year, the infrared astronomical satellite (IRAS), circling in a polar orbit 560 miles from the Earth, detected heat from an object about 50 billion miles away that is now the subject of intense speculation.
"All I can say is that we don't know what it is yet," says Gerry Neugenbaur, director of the Palomar Observatory for the California Instititute of Technology. Scientists are hopeful that the one-way journeys of the Pioneer 10 and 11 space probes may help to locate the nameless body.
Some astronomers say the heat-emitting object is an unseen collapsed star or possibly a "brown dwarf" — a protostar that never got hot enough to become a star. However, a growing number of astronomers insist that the object is a dar, gaseous mass that is slowly evolving into a planet.
For decades, astromers have noted that the orbits of two huge, distant planets — Neptune and Uranus —deviate slightly from what they should be according to the laws of physics. Gravitational pull from Planet X would explain that deviation.
Morever, says Neugebaur, "if we can show that our own solar system is still creating planets, we'll know that it's happening around other stars, too."

zoom in? Can't see anything? switch to IRIS:Improved Reprocessing.
Bingo !
Its Big and its Hot !
no its right on the blue line ecliptic orbit only visible in IRIS to left and down from mars

Is it to track the brown Dwarf ?

2nd part of 1983 article
It just seems a bit fishy that we have waited 26 years to relaunch a infra-red telescope, and that there was a massive infra-red telescope built at the Antarctic in 2004 which by all accounts was built in a hurry. Is the Copenhagen treaty a cover for international talks on the incoming threat of Nibiru?
Time will tell!
is it just possible that the world government have know about this since 1983 when the 1st infra-red telescope went up, Was the 2008 bank failures a way of siphoning money away to pay for research/preventive measures? Quantitative easing? Is Copenhagen conference about nibiru? I mean there is a possibility that all of that is true however slim you cannot deny that as I am sure that if this was the case the last people to know would be the general public.
